Good work Lilac! I see nothing wrong with shedding tears while throwing out some rotten food from the fridge...I find after a good cry (sometimes it is for longer times than others) that I do feel better....often more tired granted, but a little better. And the rotten food won't mind some salty tears on it as it hits the garbage can. No need to clean out the whole fridge now - are there some things at the front that are easy tosses - ie no need to smell 'em, eball them or assess whether you want to keep them? What about throwing away the "easy" things first? Do you feel up for that?
